Wyclef Jean has always been proud of his Hatian roots. Sometimes a little too proud. However, all that was called into question four years back when he was accused of being fraudulent with the Yele Haiti Foundation he set up to help the people of Haiti following the 2010 earthquake. Though the heat has died down in the public eye, for the most part, it was brought back when Clef tried to have a Ask Me Anything session on Reddit.

The Fugees co-founder was hoping fans would ask questions about his time with the Fugees, their classic album The Score (which turned 20 on Feb. 13) or his solo works. But seeing as the internet is devoid of chill, people went straight for the jugular. "With all that money you stole from those poor Haitians, why couldn't you help Lauryn Hill out with her tax bill?" the first person asked.

Clef denied the accusations responding, "Its so important that u understand that if u fully do real research u will understand that whenever u decide that u are going to do more then sing and dance u have to be ready for the lies that comes with it i have never stolen from my people i brought Haitian pride to my people and despite what they tried to do i am growing stronger everyday and will continue to do my part as i can see you are doing your part as well [sic]," he wrote back in his reply.

Other users didn't hold back either with another person asking, "How can you defend yourself about using a charity that you stood up and chaired as a personal piggy bank?" The comment section got even realer with people going in on the entertainer.

We are sure this is not what the rapper was expecting when he signed up for this. But 'Clef did get a good number of regular music-related questions. Check out the entire thread here.
